Jeff, I have not read the opinion, but I have herd enough to answer your questions. As far as the court asserting that there is a justiciable issue, I have no doubt this assertion is incorrect. But given the pressure (and notoriety) of the moment, I can see them passing right by that issue and moving on to the substance. As for the substance, it is quite weak. It is injudicial and just name-calling to characterize the S of State's action as amounting to "disenfranchisement." The questions all involve reading the requisite statutes. On this score, it seems to me the court split the difference. Remember, during the questioing, it was clear that the issue of the deadline for having Flo's votes counted in the Electoral College was paramount. This seems to be the other side of the court's twin foci-- count and recount all votes within a short span of time. That said, I doubt this recount can be finished by Sunday. That is my hope.
